I had to go look--
what he actually did was describe "the bankers and stock traders who died in the World Trade Center as "little Eichmanns." He called their deaths a "penalty befitting their participation in . . . the 'mighty engine of profit' to which the military dimension of U.S. policy has always been enslaved."

I like this one best:

Rev Falwell's motivation was a little different but he used the word-
"And with biological warfare available to these monsters -- the Husseins, the Bin Ladens, the Arafats -- what we saw on Tuesday, as terrible as it is, could be miniscule if, in fact -- if, in fact -- God continues to lift the curtain and allow the enemies of America to give us probably what we deserve.

There actually were a lot of comments on line, many from other countries--
" like to consider myself an intelligent deep thinking and decent person, but as more and more lies and atrocities commited both by America and Britain are uncovered I am left feeling that while the innocents of both 9/11 and 7/7 did not deserve what happened to them, the countries did."
